I guess we can dislike the player from the perspective of personality yet respect what they achieve as ball players. <br /><br />PeteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5132588.post-20187915096801006192013-02-24T19:35:44.589-05:002013-02-24T19:35:44.589-05:00Great comments, Brian.

However, I...I understand where you are coming from. However, I love Jered Weaver as an Angels fan but I cannot stand Justin Verlander. Every time he takes the mound I want nothing more than for him to get shelled and yet, I have no real understanding for why I dislike him so much. I guess it all comes down to the person and the way he "looks" or "acts" on the mound rather than the actual numbers. If I were to write a similar story, I would have to plagerize pretty much all of the information and just replace Jered with Justin. Good work and really has me thinking about why I am so anti Verlander.Brian T.noreply@blogger.com
